Hopi Holiday Project since 1999

This Hopi Holiday Project gifting is from a place of respect and thanks acknowledging the challenges of living on an Indian reservation in remote Northeastern Arizona far from the economic resources of urban America. Hopi people sincerely carry on a tradition with roots going back thousands of years that is of importance to all the world and is dedicated to all peoples with Mother Earth.
2021 Hopi Holiday project is Support for Hopi College Students.
YOUR DONATION IS WELCOME to support Hopi college youth with needed equipment, supplies and/or tuition aide

Hopis manage to grow corn in the high desert without irrigation–proof of their faith, endurance and ability to pray. They choose this land many centuries ago. Please see the vertical box on home page with historic photo of a Hopi traditional farmer for more of our inspiration for our projects.
